Many modern processor performance benchmarks rely on as many as three levels of cache staying continuously fed. Yet, new data-intensive applications like multithreaded generative AI and 4K image processing often break conventional caching, leaving the expensive execution units behind them stalled. A while back, Semidynamics… Read More
Modern CPU performance hinges on keeping a processor’s pipeline fed so it executes operations on every tick of the clock, typically using abundant multi-level caching. However, a crop of cache-busting applications is looming, like AI and high-performance computing (HPC) applications running on big data sets. Semidynamics… Read More
ARM Cortex-A series processor core (A57, A53) are well known in the high performance market segments, like Application Processor for smartphone, Set-Top-Box or networking. If you look at the electronic market you realize that multiple applications are cost sensitive and doesn’t need such high performance processor core. … Read More
